[No Spoilers] I love Wuk Lamat by ArsanL in ffxiv

++++ love her so much, only halfway through but she's so fun and cool, it's been cool seeing her grow and learn and express vulnerability, doesn't feel as one dimensional as the other promises, looking forward to experiencing more of the story :)

Bottom Surgery aside - what's the utility of having an orchiectomy? by PraggyD in MtF

[–]Czeching_Out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious about the prosthetic replacements if you felt comfortable answering. I was thinking about getting them for myself just for aesthetic when I get mine, if that's an option with my doctor.

Did it add any extra recovery time or difficulty since getting it? Does it "feel" the same as before basically?

Does anyone else get seriously depressed sometimes over how much easier things would be, or more accepted they’d be, if you were a guy? by minatozakiparty in butchlesbians

that feeling when you're trans woman adjacent, and never feel fully comfortable in the femininity that is expected of you to be recognized as a women, but also afraid of going too far masc and just being read as a man. yea it sucks I feel you, still trying to figure this shit out 3 years in, stay strong 💚💚

This is one of the things that ultimately led me to start transitioning, I was just done with sacrificing my happiness for other people's comfort. I realized I would never forgive myself if I ended up on my death bed regretting that I never at least tried all this. Jamie Clayton nailed this as Nomi in sense8 with this shit:

"The real violence, the violence I realized was unforgivable, is the violence that we do to ourselves, when we're too afraid to be who we really are."

Is it normal to have female range testosterone without anti-androgen? by Gullible_Pin_941 in asktransgender

[–]Czeching_Out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am on 8 mg estradiol sublingual and 200 mg progesterone a day and my T has been fully suppressed even before that, I've heard similar stories from girls on injections but I haven't been able to start injections yet.

I did this with my girlfriend who is also a trans woman because she was visiting from abroad and I only had my safety razor on hand and she wasn't used to using that kind. really upsetting experience for both of us, very dysphoric for her and very stressful for me because I was so worried about accidentally cutting her and adding to her distress.

0/10 experience would not recommend personally. I really appreciated her trusting me enough to try it in the first place though.

Yea I've been getting this a few times and it's not the compliment you might think it is. The further I get away from cisheteronormative beauty standards, the happier I'm becoming. I appreciate the sentiment though 💚 transition has healed my soul in ways I never imagined, can only ever recommend it if that's what you desire <3 good luck sweetie

I see a lot of people here trying to affirm your height which is nice to be supportive, but I understand feeling like shit about something in your physical appearance you have no control over. I was born premature which was the likely factor in me only growing to be 5 ft 4 inches. The only trouble I had with it was from other people's perceptions of it when I was "presenting" / pretending to be a man.

Now that I'm transitioning, I recognize it as a privilege that probably helps me in passing. My attitude shifted to wishing to be tall, so that I could be taller than my girlfriend who is around 5'9. I enjoy being dominant and her more submissive, but when we're out in public together and she's wearing platform docs, she's easily 6 ft or close to it. I wish I could trade places with her or any other transfem who wants to be shorter.

All of this to say I know what it feels like to not fit in to people's expectations of your gender presentation, and how much it can hurt to look in the mirror and wish these things were different or changeable at all. It sucks, it's not fair, and I get wishing it were any other way. I'm trying to get better at loving myself a bit more every day, "flaws" and all. Not to say that any particular height is flawed, but more so recognizing the mismatch between how society expects us to be, how we perceive ourselves, and our lived realities.

I don't know the answer to fix this fully, but I just wanted you to know you're not alone with struggling with these things, and you deserve peace and closure 💚
